Some do....some don't.

Just wondering how many you sip while playing.

I generally don't when I'm playing solo (usually on foot), but may have a couple with our groups.

None for me. I know some guys like the "swing lube" effect but for me it wouldn't take much to interfere with course management.

One at the most and only after the first nine. I'm not a very good buzzed golfer and don't enjoy it.

I'll drink a beer on the course if it's really hot because cold beer and hot weather seem to go together. But just one, then I go back to my water . . . especially when it's hot.

depends on who I am playing with.
Solo - when I am done I might have a couple if I grab a bite.
With a group, non league, as many as everyone else does
league-after we are done, with the guys I played with.
With dad/best buds- as many as fits in the cooler!!!

Someone once said that Tiger, when he entered the clubhouse at Augusta National, saw one of the masters player drinking a beer. He walked by him and said "If I had YOUR talent, I'd be drinking a beer too". And that's why I will never drink alcohol

It depends on who I am playing with. I haven't had a beer while playing in the last 10 to 15 rounds. I usually walk and drink water. After a round, I may grab a beer while I tally up my stats, but usually not more than one. I have a buddy that I play with sometimes where we'll have about 2 to 3 for the round. One time we each had a 6 pack, and by the time we got to the 16th tee, we were pretty stupid. One or two beers can help my game sometimes, after that it's downhill. Several beers = me going for it on every shot: cut the corner, carry the water, etc. I usually save the beer for afterwards.

I picked "Never", but that isn't an absolute. But I very rarely drink anything but water or a Diet Pepsi until the round is finished.

The restaurant in the clubhouse has a deal for Men's Club members where the price of the first beer after a round is the same as your score for the round... for me that's usually $.80 to $.85, so that's a deal I rarely pass up.

I hope that story isn't true. Unless Tiger was joking with a player he knew and was friendly with, because otherwise it makes him sound like a dick.

I totally depends with me. For my birthday recently, I had a gift certificate for the local country club for a foursome. I took my best friends with me... we had coolers of PBR on the carts as well as a pint of Maker's Mark. It was a great day! I'd say that 75 to 80% of the time, I don't drink anything but water or a sports drink. Sometime a little swing lubricant can help, but you have to be careful of the point of diminishing returns

I checked never, but I'm not opposed to having a few on the course, I just rarely do it.

A month or two ago I went out to play 18 early on a Sunday. I was walking and the starter paired me up with a twosome riding. They were good guys and we had a good round, but they started drinking beer on the first tee. I just can't see getting much enjoyment out of drinking a lot of beer starting at 7AM. I guess it's the principle of the matter but I've got to wait until at least the afternoon before I start drinking. I know some guys though who just think that having a few beers and golf go together and to do one without the other just isn't as much fun.

Never drink and play. I don't need it and it sets a bad example for the younger players.

Definitely depends on the day and the group I am with. I play with some guys who only drink a couple, and some who may drink a case. There may even be some marijuana along the way too.

It really just depends.

95% of the time, I may have 2 or 3 but that's about it.

Of course, the game is supposed to be played on grass.

These guys would think so, literally and figuratively.

I voted for 5.
I always take 6 with me. I try to save one for the ride home, but moochers sometimes prevent it.
I never,never drink before noon. (noon in London)
It neither helps nor hurts my game.

I never drink on the course.
I think this is a very cultural thing, I don't know anyone in the UK who drinks on the course and have never seen anyone drinking on the course.

Many people have a drink in the clubhouse afterwards, but this is not for me.

I used to drink a lot between the ages 14-21 and I've just kind of grown out of it, to a point where I rarely drink these days.

      Not sure this is the best thread but, if the rain holds off, today is my 1st round of the year.  Getting ready I can not find my Shot Scope.  I guess I put it away too well for the winter and thus that is may "Winter Depression".  I'm sure I put it somewhere that made sense at the time.
